Ian shrugged his shoulders helplessly and looked at Leah. His eyes were full of tenderness

as he said, “I wish to accompany Sarah as I’m not comfortable leaving her alone.

However, I’m occupied at work.”

“Tsk tsk. Look at the lovebirds.”

“Someone has finally captured the heart of our school hunk. So many girls are going to

have their hearts broken.”

The men at the table chatted merrily and teased Ian and Leah. In contrast, the two female

volunteers had bitter expressions and hardly consumed any food.

“Why aren’t you eating?” Bryan asked in concern when he noticed the women’s odd

attitude.

The lady with curly hair, Rebecca Patel, forced a smile and said, “It’s all right. I can’t take

spicy food.”

Ian said apologetically, “I’m sorry, I selected this restaurant as Sarah likes the food here. I

forget to ask for your preferences.”

Rebecca scowled, her eyes glistening as she tried to fight back her tears. While Leah failed

to notice the woman’s annoyance, Serena did. She smirked as she realized she had

discovered a secret.

When dinner was coming toward the end, Sunny and the rest gave a toast to Ian. After

downing three glasses of alcohol, Ian said, “Although I’m unable to join the trip, I’m

confident that you guys will look after Sarah for me. She has a weak physique, so I’m

worried that she’s unable to adapt to the harsh conditions there. Do keep me informed if

there’s an emergency.”

“Of course, we will. We have been friends for so long, Ian. We’ll definitely take good care

of your fiancee.” Bryan, who was slightly intoxicated, pounded his chest and assured.

Sunny, on the other hand, was unusually silent. His face flushed and his eyes were hollow

as if he was deep in thought.

Once they had eaten their fill, Sunny stood up and announced, “I’ll be heading to the

restroom.”

“Me too!” Rebecca followed Sunny closed behind as they made their way toward the

restroom. However, once the duo was close to the restroom, they made a detour and hid

in an isolated corner.

“What’s with your expression earlier? Didn’t I tell you to get into the woman’s good

books?” Sunny glared at Rebecca and chided her.

The woman’s expression turned solemn and she bit her lip hard. She replied bitterly, “I

didn’t mean to defy your instructions. I couldn’t help myself when I saw how well Ian

treated that woman.”

Sunny frowned and looked at Rebecca with disdain. “You can’t control yourself just

because of that?” I warned you a long time ago to get lost if you are not up to the task!

Don’t you dare to mess things up for me. Do you know what happens if you make a

mistake?”

Sunny sighed in fear of incurring Rebecca’s wrath as he noticed her face turning crimson

with rage. “Don’t blame me for being blunt,” he softened his tone. “I’m just being honest

and speaking up for your sake.”

“Don’t act so righteous, you only care about your own interest. We are in the same

precarious situation now,” Rebecca clenched her jaws and hissed.

Anger thrummed through Sunny’s veins when he heard Rebecca’s threats. However, he

had no choice but to control his temper. The man sighed before urging, “Just bear with it

for a while longer. Once we reach the village, we’ll be in control of the situation.”

Rebecca’s face scrunched up as resentment festered in her. Eventually, she swallowed

down her frustration and nodded her head silently. After chatting for a while, they returned

to the restaurant.

Sunny and Rebecca did not know that their every move was being watched. After they

made their way back to the restaurant, a tall dark figure stepped out of the shadows. He

frowned as he watched the duo disappear from sight. After a brief pause, he took out his

phone and made a call. “Check this for me…”

Rock Hill Village was located in Abingdon, a town that was famous for being embedded in

the mountains. There were approximately seven to eight villages like Rock Hill Village

located across the area. However, each of the villages was located a few hundred miles

away.

In the charted bus, the group was listening intently to Sunny’s enthusiastic introduction of

Rock Hill Village. Leah was nonchalant about staying in an underdeveloped location as she

had endured hardships before she married Han. Serena, on the other hand, was a

pampered child. It was her first time sitting on a bumpy and uncomfortable bus ride. Her

face was drained of color as she leaned on Leah’s shoulders for support.

“We’re on our way to the school where we’ll be doing volunteer teaching. It’s the only

school within a ten-mile radius. All of the children from the eight villages will attend school

here,” Sunny announced with a grin.

Bryan was intrigued because it was his first visit. Hence, he inquired further, “They walk a

few miles a day just to get to school?”

Rebecca added in confusion, “Would all the students be taught the same curriculum

then?”

Sunny sighed and explained, “Unfortunately, that is the case. The villages are run-down

and backward. As a result, those locals with some form of education would strive to leave

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

their village and find work elsewhere. As a result, there are very few teachers available. In

addition, the school is poorly resourced. Please be prepared for a challenging experience

while volunteering to teach here.”

“What could be more difficult than this bus ride? Ahh…” Serena’s speech was cut short

due to nausea. Leah hurriedly patted her back to ease her discomfort.

After a four-hour journey, the bus came to stop as it was unable to ride through the narrow

street.

“All right, we’ll have to go by foot from now on. Please get your belongings and let’s

prepare to head to the village,” Sunny informed.

Serena immediately straightened up when she heard that they could get off the bus. She

went on to fetch her belongings as instructed.

At the village’s entrance, two men and four women awaited the group. The apparent

leader looked radiant and he was dressed simply but presentable.

“Welcome to Rock Hill Village, Teachers. I’m the village head, Agus Welton,” the man

grinned and said merrily.

Sunny stepped forward and gave the man a firm handshake. “Hello, Chief Welton. Sorry

for the long wait.”

Agus signaled the villagers beside him as he spoke, “It’s all right. I’m sure you have

brought along many things. Let me send some help.”

Serena had the most belongings in the entire group. She had three pieces of luggage and

numerous bags of snacks. In addition, she had brought along a barbeque rack, as though

she was on a holiday. The most important item was a white pouch that carried all her

valued skin products.

Serena was still dazed from the earlier bus ride. To her dismay, she witnessed a burly

woman grab her bag and search through it, muttering to herself.

“Hey! Stop touching my things!” Serena shrieked.
